First Choice Power: Energy-Saving tips

Great rates from a reputable company like First Choice Power can help you keep cash in your pockets and so can some helpful energy saving tips for around your house.

1. Use a power strip.

The plethora of the entertainment equipment that some people house in the living room utilizes a lot of electrical energy. It’s easy to flip a switch and turn it all off when no one is in the room if you connect it all to a power strip.

2. Set your refrigerator to run at 38° F/ 3° C.

Food doesn’t need to be held any colder to stay fresh or edible. Set your refrigerator at this temperature for optimum efficiency.

3. Set your ceiling fans to rotate counter-clockwise in the winter time.

You can make the most of the heat in your home and reduce energy usage by making your ceiling fans run backwards. The counter-clockwise rotation pushes warm air to the lower level of your room, the area where you sit.
